Volume V of theSix Volume Remote Sensing Handbook, Second Edition, is focused on the use of remote sensing technologies for studying water resources, including groundwater, floods, snow and ice, and wetlands. It discusses water productivity studies from Earth observation data characterization and modeling, mapping their successes and challenges. Chapters include remote sensing of surface water hydrology; quantitative geomorphology; river basin studies; floods; wetlands, including mangroves and river deltas; groundwater studies; crop water use or actual evapotranspiration modeling and mapping; and snow and ice mapping. This thoroughly revised and updated volume draws on the expertise of a diverse array of leading international authorities in remote sensing and provides an essential resource for researchers at all levels interested in using remote sensing. It integrates discussions of remote sensing principles, data, methods, development, applications, and scientific and social context. FEATURES Provides the most up-to-date comprehensive coverage of remote sensing science for water resources, including wetlands, floods, snow, and ice. Provides comprehensive assessments of crop water use and crop water productivity modeling and mapping, including evapotranspiration studies. Discusses and analyzes data from old and new generations of satellites and sensors spread across 60 years. Includes numerous case studies on advances and applications at local, regional, and global scales. Introduces advanced methods in remote sensing, such as machine learning, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI). Highlights scientific achievements over the last decade and provides guidance for future developments. This volume is an excellent resource for the entire remote sensing and GIS community. Academics, researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, as well as practitioners, decision makers, and policymakers, will benefit from the expertise of the professionals featured in this book and their extensive knowledge of new and emerging trends.
